7.0 Inspection and Preventative Maintenance Chart
Routine maintenance is an essential part of any successful pump installation. Properly
maintained FMC pumps are designed to offer years of trouble-free service.
Regular maintenance and inspection will keep your pump operating at peak
performance. FMC pumps have been carefully engineered to minimize maintenance
requirements and simplify these tasks when they are required. Regular inspections
allow operators to become familiar with normal pump operation so they can recognize
the signals of potential problems and schedule maintenance. The maintenance chart in
Table 3 shown below should be used as a guideline only. Many applications will require
adjustment of the intervals shown in this chart for severe or unusual operating
conditions.
Table 3: W11 Maintenance Schedule

Check the cylinder liner area of the pump for signs of leakage.
Replace piston cups if leakage becomes excessive.
